For the first time, a novel solar device has been fabricated by integrating fiber dye-sensitized solar cells (FDSCs) with luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) via a groove. Optical efficiencies from 8.27% to 22.05% have been achieved by the efficient solar devices. A Pmax up to 10 mW has been reached by fabricating a red solar module (70.56 cm2) with ...

Three dendritic molecules EG0, EG1 and EG2 were synthesized and separately used as co-adsorbents in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) to explore their effect on controlling interfacial charge recombination. It was found that the resulting device with EG2 as the co-adsorbent (device EG2) displayed superior open-circuit voltage (VOC), improved short-circ...

SnO2 nanoparticle film is directly prepared by in situ thermal calcining isopropanol solution of tin tetraisopropoxide, and is used to construct the SnO2−TiO2 junction on titanium wire substrate. The titanium wire supported SnO2-TiO2 junction is further applied to fiber-shaped dye-sensitized solar cells (FDSCs). High efficiency of 5.8% (normal mod...
